Ike jumped up excitedly and planted a swift kiss on my cheek, "Auntie, you're the best!" Then he dashed off towards the elevator, leaping into his dad's arms.
Herbert, holding his little guy, cover, handed back my phone, and nodded politely, "I've explained everything to Ike, so I'll be taking him now." "Auntie! Ike's leaving now!" Ike blewa kiss, his voice sweet and soft, "But don't worry, I'll be back before it gets dark." I looked at him in surprise, and Herbert's brow furrowed subtly, but he didn't comment.
I ruffled Ike's hair, "Listen to your mom and dad." "Okay!" The little munchkin nodded vigorously.
Herbert said, "Ms. Webster, we'll be off. Sorry for the intrusion." "It's... it's fine!" For sreason, Herbert gavea strong impression of an elder.
It wasn't just his personality, but also something indescribable.
Herbert, carrying the little munchkin, entered the elevator, his tone steady, "You're not staying at htonight, but you still want to cback?" "Yeah!" Ike, hanging from his dad's neck, blinked his big eyes, "Dad, you'll bringback, right?" Herbert looked at him, "Your grandparents miss you." "Um...I miss grandma and grandpa too..." Ike seemed torn, pondering for a moment before deciding, "But, Ike has important things to do!" Herbert chuckled at the little guy, "Important things?" He's just a little kid. His whole day is filled with eating, playing and sleeping. What important things could he possibly have? Ike, sensing his dad's skepticism, huffed, "Yep! It's about whether Ike will get a brother or sister." He was getting bored on his own.
If he didn't help out, when would his uncle and aunt decide to have a little baby for him to play with? Herbert's expression darkened, "Brother or sister? Your mom's dating someone new?" Since the divorce, in the Taylor family, Edith had been quite the free spirit, dating several men who all looked like pretty boys. And she flaunted each one on social media. As if she was trying to provoke him. Now she was planning to have more kids? "...No..." Ike instinctively wanted to explain, but then he had an idea and nodded vigorously. "Yep, Dad, Mom went abroad to have fun with her boyfriend!" ...He didn't need to say it.

Herbert thought she knew better, at most just fooling around.
But now she was thinking of having kids? She never grew up.
Herbert sighed, "Why didn't you go with her?" "I..." He thought, "I'm here to help Uncle score points! If not for me, how could he becJane's official boyfriend so quickly?" But... seeing his dad's serious face Ike, with his clear eyes, lied without blushing, "Mom said... she saida'd slow down her progress of gettinga brother or sister." That should be right, right? He'd seen something about it on a video.
Herbert nearly ground his teeth to dust.
Edith really was getting out of hand, saying such things to a child.
After strapping Ike into his child seat, Herbert called his assistant, "Booka ticket to Barcelona." "Sure, when would you like to leave?" "As soon as possible." Ike, listening from the side, pressed his lips together, suppressing his excitement.
Dad's going to find mom! As long as dad tries hard, no one else can bechis stepdad.

After lunch, the PD handed out the task cards it was tto harvest the rice.
The task was urgent and demanding.
All the guests needed to pitch in.
Summer was bewildered and turned to Becky in a low voice, "Becky, can I, maybe, not go?" The rice fields were a good distance from the houses.
